Refurbs Buckley is thrilled to announce the launch of a new series of Upcycle and Repair Workshops, made possible with funding from Enfinium.

These community-driven workshops, offered at no cost to participants, are designed to empower individuals with hands-on skills in upcycling, repair, and sustainable practices. Each workshop requires advance booking due to limited space.

These sessions will cover sewing, applique, visible mending and upcycling of household items. Led by passionate instructors, participants will receive guidance to extend the life of everyday items while reducing waste.
